Chapter 270: Li Jing Officially Attacks (Compensation)

The strategy of Su Dingfang and Luo Yan achieved miraculous results.Within a few days, several Turkic generals had come to vote.Such a good deed lifted the spirits of the generals under Li Jing's tent.Although the qualifications of these generals who came to vote are not too high in the Turks, at least the strategy has worked.

And the next harvest made everyone even more overjoyed.

Kang Sumi, Jieli's confidant, actually brought the former Sui Empress Xiao and her grandson Yang Zhengdao to vote.

The identities of these three people who came here are very important.As a Turkic general, Kang Sumi had as many as [-] troops under his tent.The number of [-] did not include the luggage team. Kang Sumi came here in a hurry, and with the Tang Dynasty guaranteeing his future life, he didn't bring any luggage at all.When they arrived in Xiangcheng, the army was nervous.If Kang Sumi hadn't entered the city alone to discuss with Li Jing, Luo Yan and the others would have thought they were coming to attack the city.

Li Jing's momentum rose sharply, and Xieli's life was not easy.

Coupled with Xu Shiji, Chai Shao, Xue Wanche and others' continuous attacks, Jieli had no choice but to move the tooth tent to the foot of Yinshan Mountain.But there is such a strange thing in all minority regimes, the capital of the country must be located at the junction of their own ethnicity and the Han nationality.This is to ensure the domination of the Han nationality as much as possible.

This was true of the Northern Wei regime in history, and so was the Turks.At the beginning, Jieli's tooth tent was placed in such a place, but now it is forced to retreat to Yinshan Mountain, and further north, it is completely the settlement area of ​​Xue Yantuo and other ethnic minorities.From this we can see how embarrassed Xieli is now.

When Kang Sumi brought people to surrender, Luo Yan was surprised to find that his mission completion rate had actually increased by one-fifth.This made Luo Yan very happy, and there is such a result without bloodshed.It was for this reason, and because Luo Yan also knew that he would not be able to send troops during this period of time, his enthusiasm for making plans became even higher.

When Li Jing raised his account again, the army had already advanced to Baidao.Stepping on the ground that was frozen like iron by the cold sky, Li Jing laughed and said to Xu Shiji, the general manager of the Tongmo Road: "The land under our feet is the place where Jieli put his horses. Now Jieli is not only here The place was killed by Director Xu and turned on his back, and was trampled on by us. Haha, things are impermanent, so I’m probably talking about such things.”

Xu Shiji was also very happy to be able to injure Xieli severely. Seeing Li Jing praise his achievements in public, he smiled happily: "Xieli is arrogant and has little strategy. , bumping around like a headless fly. It would be strange if he didn't perish."

The two praised each other, and Li Jing said seriously: "I plan to take people to raid Jieli Yazhang for a long distance in the next few days, and take him down in one fell swoop while his foothold is not stable."

Li Jing's proposal was not unattractive, and generals like Xu Shiji praised: "Yes, this is indeed an excellent opportunity. If we grasp it well, it will not be a problem to wipe out Xieli in one fell swoop."

The two marching chiefs made a proposal and affirmed it, which made the generals under the tent excited instantly.

However, soon one person's speech poured cold water on the heads of these generals.Zhang Gongjin, deputy chief of the Dingxiang Road march, came out, bowed to Li Jing and Xu Shiji, straightened his body and objected: "Is what the general manager said a little aggressive? I just sent Shangshu Tang Jian and General An Xiuren a few days ago. The envoys were going to Turkic, and sending troops at this time would put them both in danger. What's more, now that Xieli has already asked for peace, it is the time when we are waiting for a truce. "

What Zhang Gongjin said made sense.Even Luo Yan had to admit that Li Jing was definitely a bit aggressive in doing this.That's all for An Xiuren, just a general; but Tang Jian was the minister of the Ministry of Etiquette and inspected the school at that time, and he went to the Turks many times as an envoy, and made great contributions to the easing of the relationship between the Tang Dynasty and the Turks.

If such a person is murdered, it will definitely chill the hearts of many important officials in the court.

Although Luo Yan himself is a general at this time, he will be involved in politics in the future.If you don't stand up and speak for Tang Jian at this time, how can you gain a foothold in the court in the future.When Zhang Gongjin finished talking and the generals were still hesitating, Luo Yan had already stood up, bowed his hands to Li Jing and Xu Shiji, and said, "Think twice, commander, Tang Shangshu is an important minister in the court after all, and we will put his life and death at risk by acting like this." If we ignore it, we will definitely provoke the civil and military criticism of the Manchu Dynasty. Even if Jieli can be captured and killed in one fell swoop to destroy the Turks, it will not only be useless, but will bring disaster."

Li Jing snorted coldly: "If the Turks take this opportunity to invest in Xue Yantuo, they will have a chance to survive. When their strength recovers in the next year, they will come back to trouble us, and then it will be the real disaster."

Li Jing's explanation did not convince Luo Yan: "Even if we send troops, we can still send people to inform Tang Shangshu and General An. The two are in Turkic, and they can also let them confuse Jieli by the way. Why do we have to fight without declaring war?" , The two of them lost their lives for no reason. With the relationship network of Tuli Khan in Turkic, it may not be impossible for the two of them to return safely."

But Li Jing is the general manager of the marching army after all, and he has the final say on all military operations.Hearing what Zhang Gongjin and Luo Yan said, he couldn't help snorting: "You are all women's benevolence. Those who make big things don't care about small things, but now destroying Turks is a big thing, and protecting their lives is a small thing. Turks are capricious. I can trust him to make peace. I think Tang Shangshu himself will not hesitate to face such a choice. Now I just want to take advantage of the two of them in Turkic to confuse Xieli and make him take it lightly, so that I can send surprise soldiers."

Seeing that Luo Yan still wanted to refute, Li Jing reprimanded: "Okay, let's settle the matter like this, don't say any more. On this trip, I will take elite soldiers to attack the Turkic Yazhang. Luo Yan, your soldiers and horses are They are elites personally selected by His Majesty, don't let us down." The implication was naturally to drag Luo Yan into the water and gag him along the way.

Li Jing had already made a decision, and the gap in this position made Luo Yan unable to make any further rebuttals.With a helpless sigh, Luo Yan had no choice but to bow down and accept the order.

When a group of people walked out of the tent, Zhang Gongjin deliberately stayed behind and waited for Luo Yan to come over.

"Jinzhi, I would like to thank you for your words of help today. However, I never thought that the commander-in-chief was so eager to win that he would be so disregarding the lives of his colleagues. Sigh, you have to be careful these few days. The commander-in-chief uses soldiers like gods, but he won't like not to listen The general who commanded himself. I am afraid that the next battle will have nothing to do without you and me. I will let it go, after all, you are entrusted by His Majesty. If you have the opportunity to send troops, you must seize the opportunity to earn some credit first. Otherwise, it will be very difficult to go back. Difficult to deal with."

Zhang Gongjin's suggestion surprised Luo Yan.Li Jing is not so narrow-minded.

But after thinking about it, he was right.No one likes to have disobedient people under their command.If Luo Yan objected to Li Jing's opinion in this way, in the next battle, I'm afraid he really wouldn't let his 1000 people be the main force of any surprise attack.If the time comes when Luo Yan's wife is benevolent, won't his strategy fail.

Sighing, Luo Yan reluctantly smiled, bowed to Zhang Gongjin, and said, "Thank you for your advice. If it weren't for your words, I'm afraid I would have to wait happily until the end of the war. In the days to come I will try my best to get some credit in the small battle. However, if it happens again today, I will still do it."

Zhang Gongjin saw that Luo Yan accepted her kindness, nodded, and told him in a low voice: "I think you have a good friendship with Tuli Khan, if possible, please ask him to help, and ask him to send someone to try to keep Tang Shangshu. Life. If the Turks are tied in this first battle, it will be fine. If you can’t do your best, you may not be able to find someone who is familiar with the relationship between the two countries in the future.”

Tang Jian is not Li Shimin's direct descendant, but his importance is self-evident.After two dynasties, he went to Turkic as an envoy more than a dozen times, participated in several peace talks with Turkic, and even had the ability to make Xieli retreat with diplomatic rhetoric.Tang Jian is a rare talent for Datang.

He also admired this old man Luo Yan very much. Hearing what Zhang Gongjin said, he naturally nodded and agreed without saying a word.

After Zhang Gongjin left, Luo Yan returned to his account, wrote a letter about Tang Jian, and ordered Kuaima to hand it over to Tuli, who was still far away in Yunzhou——Li Shimin arranged for him to work in Yunzhou after he voted He became a general, although he has no real name, but he is treated quite well, and now he is attacking the eastern part of Turkic with Xue Wanche.

After finishing this matter, Luo Yan began to think about his own affairs.

There are still 7 people before the task is completed. If according to what Zhang Gongjin said, he will definitely not be able to be the main force in the next battle, then this task will definitely fail.

What should I do?After thinking all night, Luo Yan still couldn't come up with a good solution.
